Broken people in a wasted land
Where everything has gone awry.
We fix what we know to be broken
Yet nobody asks why.
Flowers move along with a breeze
Everyone feels its touch.
Every so often we beg for water
But they never give us very much.
When one of us decides to dance
They give us a little song.
If we complain to the people in charge
They hold a gun to us and ask what is wrong.
Perhaps the mindless never notice
Or watch what they take away.
Some of us breathe anarchy
And someday we will get our way.
We’ll pretend to walk along with the fold
But we are the wolf, not the sheep.
Right about the time they think they’ve won
They will sow what they reap.
We’ll attach chains to their ankles
Make them beg for food.
When they ask for a little drink of our ale
We’ll tell them were not in the mood.
Someday we’ll all be awake
We’ll want this country back.
It begins with a call to arms
To get us all on track.
If you want to be part of the solution
Instead of being part of the crime.
Turn off your televisions for good
Take back your life and your time.
Read up on our Constitution
That granted us certain rights.
Our forefathers wanted us to be free
They wanted us all to be lights.
Stop putting fools with money into office
And elect our common man.
Nobody knows what we want more
Than our neighbor, with a brilliant plan.
There is strength in numbers and aptitude
We’ll stop all wars with peace.
Dignity comes to a country that knows
The men in Guantanamo deserve release.
Until we understand unity
And realize our worth.
Nothing comes from our death
If we don’t tend to our re-birth.
